All About Pocket Knives

Picked up this old Schrade 15OT, sold by Sears Craftsman for $9 the other day off ebay.com. 5 to 15 hrs of restoration and a new, custom edge, way sharper than factory, and its a beautiful knife again. I estimate from the 1960s or 70s, based on the condition of the blade before & wear on sheath.

Should be an easy $75 to $100+ now. Not sure if it's for sale.other than I'm a collector and they're always ALL for sale. At the right price.

Did you change the handles?

Looks like you tossed the Delrin for some nice looking wood.
